Abstract
The article focuses on curriculum development for intensive English programs, highlighting its significance for university students and professionals involved in curriculum design. It critiques the ADDIE model, emphasizing the need for a contextualized approach to curriculum that adapts to local needs and cultural practices. The book discussed is structured into 11 chapters, each providing theoretical insights and practical examples, including the importance of learner analysis, mission statements, and the iterative nature of curriculum evaluation. While it effectively balances theory and practice, the article notes a lack of comprehensive examples related to online instruction, suggesting room for improvement in addressing contemporary educational contexts.
